Description:

"EAT, YELLOW, CIRCLE - do you mean pancakes? Or pineapple rings? Oh wait, the CIRCLE is DIVIDED? So something that you eat that is yellow and semicircular? Uh, is it, maybe…a banana?" "Yes, the answer is banana! One point for the Blue Team!"

In the communication game Word Slam, two teams compete against one another simultaneously.

In each round, one player on each team tries to get their teammates to guess a hidden word or phrase using only the 105 explanatory cards available in the box. Speaking and acting is absolutely forbidden for the storytellers! They must tell their stories using only 105 cards, each with one word on it: a noun, verb, adjective, or preposition.

A player can use as many explanatory cards as desired, and whichever team guesses correctly first scores a point. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins!

This variant should be used for a three-player game. It can also be used as an alternative way to play for more than three players. The rules are the same except for the following rule variations:

  • You play with only one set of story word cards (blue or orange).

  • There is only one storyteller.

  • The storyteller always flips the hourglass before he or she starts displaying story word cards.
